It sags a bit at the back so it can be hard over shallow sections (the new models have extra floatation in the rear)... but as long as you have someone standing at the front it's ok.
yeah mate they were good when you were fighting a fish up the front, gave you something to put your legs against. Also came in handy when standing up there to anchor out wide.
Is the rig flat bottom? I once went up a few creeks up north in a flat bottom rig like that. Was great for the shallow areas. Caught heaps of jacks and sml reef sharks.

Nice boat there Jay. How hard is it to drag over mud, or do you try not to get it in those situations?
Love the Kimberley live bait tank.;)
